OLIVIAMinutes turned to hours with those two unable to get hold of their boss. They were getting impatient and frustrated, and it scared me. I did not want them to take out their frustrations on me and I didn’t want my son to grow up without me. I had already lost so much time with him I didn’t wan
OLIVIAShock covered his face, eyes wide and his men took steps closer to their boss pointing their guns at me. what the hell did they think I was going to do? I couldn’t even fight and yet they pulled their guns on me. He turned to them and glared. They lowered their guns putting them away before s
OLIVIA“I didn’t mean to hurt your mother; you have got to believe that. we spent weeks scouting and learning that man’s routine. Your mother was never with him, he was always alone. We thought he was alone that day as well, but your mother was with him.” he tried to explain but my head was buzzing
MARCUSAs soon as I was told about what Jones was doing. I asked my people to make sure my money was safe, I didn’t care about the businesses he was targeting, they only represented a fraction of what I owned. The man didn’t know who I was, he thought he was dealing with an ordinary man, but I was
OLIVIAAfter staying in my room for hours with Lupita comforting me. I ended up falling asleep. I don’t know when Lupita left my room but when I woke up this morning. She was nowhere to be found but Samuel was next to me watching me. A smile formed on my lips. “Morning baby how are you?” he giggled
OLIVIAI didn’t know if I heard right or if I was hearing things, but I just stood there waiting for him to repeat himself. “Talk to me.” he said, and I opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came out. “Am not sure what am supposed to say.”“It’s a simple answer that I am looking for, a yes o
NICKMy feet felt heavy as I walked out of the room, I felt empty inside as I was leaving my heart behind. She did not want me anymore and she was ready to marry someone else. Why couldn’t she see me, why couldn’t she see that I was there, trying to make things right between us. Why won’t she give m
NICKEthan liked exaggerating things, what could a small-time businessman do to me? I am Nick Jones, and I have more wealth than he did. Why would I fear him? Ethan shoved his hands in his pockets and gave me a look like I was the biggest moron who ever lived. “What?” he chuckled dryly. Opened his m
MARCUSI sat there and watched my wife. From the first moment we arrived at the restaurant, and she saw the guys to the moment that woman arrived. When she saw the guys, she had been disappointed, she wanted the celebration to be just us.I got that but I didn’t want them coming to our home, I had p
OLIVIAThe last three months had been…I didn’t know how to describe them. Quiet was not the right word, maybe lonely would have been better in that situation. It took a while for us to get used to being alone, just us. It had never been just us since we got married. Nick and Ethan always hung around
NICKI wanted to wipe that smug look off his face with a punch, who the hell did he think he was? to blackmail me like that. Using my son! I looked him dead in the eyes ready to punch him. “Go ahead, punch me. it will be more evidence against you.” He smirked, “See these cameras around?” the bastard
MARCUSI looked at the man, the audacity he had to come into my house after everything he had done. He even looked scared as if he were a man caught cheating by his wife. What the hell was going through that moron’s mind?I couldn’t even be angry at him anymore, it was no use, Nick was obsessed with
MARCUSAnger, that was what I felt as I left that room. leaving my hurting wife behind not knowing what the hell happened to her while she was away. She was happy when she left, she couldn’t wait to see Lupita. What did that woman do to her?I walked downstairs with Ethan following me behind. “How i
OLIVIAI was holding tears the whole drive home. My chest burned and my heart was sore. Our families and those closest to us could deceive us sometimes. Tell us we were good, doing good, but they failed to point it out when we were doing wrong. When we were hurting those, we claimed to love.No one
OLIVIAI straightened on my seat looking at her for a moment without saying anything. I knew she was hurting, and I wanted to find the right words to say to her. “I know I have put you through a lot, being around me has put your life in danger many times and I am sorry I neglected you in all those t
OLIVIAI woke up early, got myself and the kids ready. By the time Marcus woke up, we were already in the kitchen having breakfast. “Where are you all going without me?” I just smiled and served him breakfast. I had been missing Lupita a lot since she moved out.I had given her time to settle in lik
NICKI thought I could hold it in a little while longer, keep pretending to like her but when she mentioned being angry with Olivia. I couldn’t hold it in anymore. Who the hell did she think she was? She couldn’t even compare to Olivia.Yes, her grandmother died, but that was not Olivia’s fault. Tha
